Thanks!! I don't know when I will play the game, so some spoilers will unfortunatelly reach me, but I will use less youtube this week specially.

I played the wonderful Tales of Arise through the week (thanks a lot PS+ Extra) and started the intriguing Siege of Paris DLC from Assassin's Creed Valhalla. I won't be playing for the rest of the weekend as I will travel to see my girlfriend. A very happy weekend for all of us!!

Sad for Outer Wilds, Haven and Tchia. i wanted to play those games, but my time didn't allow it.

I think it's better for the game to not star Din Djarin or be set in his timeframe. it gives more freedom to the story. The Star Wars are doing a immensely good job in fitting inside the official canon, so I see the trend continuing. I trust Respawn.

@Doctor_BK You did right playing Yakuza 0 1st. Yakuza K2 refferences that game a lot. As I gone from Zero to 2 straight (have beaten K1 sometime before), I am impressed with the callbacks. The Majima story in K2 (3 extra chapters, wait for them to unlock before playing, better this way) are a great follow up to the dramatic Zero events. You will see.

I'm very close to end the optional storylines of K2 (clan creator and cabaret), and them move to Y3. What a great franchise!!

Tales of Arise alone made this month a winner for me! And Premium users, don't sleep on Tales of Vesperia!! One of the best JRPGs I ever played!! A gem!!

I'm ending the main stories of Assassin's Creed Valhalla and Final Fantasy XVI. Almost wraping up the business storylines of Yakuza Kiwami 2 as well, soon moving to Yakuza 3. Maybe fit some The Witcher 3 too. I won't resist geting Tales of Arise through Ps Plus next week, so I must advance in the other games. I will game a lot this weekend!!

That they never remastered this franchise, it's a huge crime. Never had the chance to play any of them, and I always wanted to!!

I was expecting Tales of Arise for ages now. One of my most wanted games. Must clear my backlog to add it to my rotation haha.

And I fully recommend Tales of Vesperia DE for any JRPG fan!! It's a gem of a game!!

I would play all Halo games, I always wanted to dive into the franchise, butI can't handle 2 consoles at the same time, my playtime is already stacked with only Playstation.

I'm a little torn as if I get the demo or not. I won't buy the game on launch, as I am a little busy this year and there are games to complete before I can add a huge game like this. The financial aspect plays a part too. But I will get Rebirth this year anyway, I won't resist haha

It's a unbelievable idiotic decision from them.

Very close to the end of Final Fantasy XVI now. Gonna kick some ancient/templar butts in Assassin's Creed Valhalla, jost a few territories in the main quest to conquer (but still a lot of DLC to do as well). If I find the disposition, some Yakuza Kiwami 2 or Uncharted 1 Rem.. I was on vacation so traveled a lot, and found a new girl hehe So gaming took a little backseat this year. But we love this activity, so game on!!

I won't get it on launch, and I'm playing 3 long PS5 games still (Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Final Fantasy XVI and The Witcher 3), but I'll manage when the time comes.

We need a remaster/remake of AC1. AC4 holds up very well, I got platinum on it last year and felt great!! Remaking it now is a waste of resources, when we have AC1 inacessible for PS4/5 users, and the game can receive QOL updates too. Even add Jeremy Irons likeness to the Alan Rikkin character.

One of the best months ever!!! Amazing lineup!!

@trymer89 I love this series. The games are so engaging, Aloy is a great character, the world is beautiful. The ending of HZD is sublime, the DLC is very strong too. And the sequel is even better. I got platinum in both games with pleasure!!

I think I will play Final Fantasy XVI, and Assassin's Creed Valhalla. I don't have any plans to the New Year Eve, my december is going a little messy. At least my vacation starts in january, so I will do plenty of gaming, try to vent this tension I'm feeling often.

i think I will spend more than 2 years with this one.

I'm still playing it, and is really superb, amazing. For real, the Eikon boss fights are maybe the most amazing I ever seen in gaming!! The writing is powerful. I didn't played every great release of 2023, but for sure Final Fantasy XVI could be higher than 5th.

One of the best selections in a long time!!!

A really thrilling game. As a Star Wars fan myself, this one was a bliss!! Great story, characters, setpieces, revelations about the lore... Visuals, sound, gameplay, all top notch. A must play of 2023.

@Hootnoodle The true ending of Ys VIII is beautiful. I love Dana, what a amazing character!! Beaten this game almost a year ago, and have fond memories!!

This weeks were quite straining here at the job, it drained my forces so I couldn't play for too long at home. I will try to rest in the holidays, and play Final Fantasy XVI, Yakuza Kiwami 2, Assassin's Creed Valhalla... At least my vacation comes in january, and I need that rest.

It's really atractive art and design. I will play it in the future!!

@Terra_Custodes I really don't care for what you think. Have a day.

I was very shocked yesterday. A huge loss for our community.

Thank the Lord that Jaffe isn't involved in the franchise anymore. What we are getting in those new, nordic GOWs is some of the best, more profound and nuanced storytelling to ever grace the medium. May it continue!!

Some runs in God of War R Valhalla, it's so engaging, easy to pick and play!! Must advance in Yakuza Kiwami 2 as well, it's been weeks... If time allows it, I will give a go in either AC Valhalla or Final Fantasy XVI. Lots of games to play!!

Finished the main part yesterday, amazing experience!! Reminded me how amazing the combat is, and the narrative bits are TOP NOTCH!! A real treat to GOW fans!! If you liked GOW R, PLAY IT!!

Started yesterday, and it's AMAZING!! Not only in a gameplay aspect, but in the story department as well! It presents lots of tidbits about the lore, the state of the characters. I already beaten 3 bosses, only stopped to sleep. It's very worthwile for GOW fans!!

Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy is very welcome!!

Gonna download when I get home later!!!

Good pick, I want it!!

Mine were:

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth
Star Wars: Outlaws
Rise of The Ronin
Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown

A great year awaits!!

@Blacksmith1985 Well, Kratos deserves a good "rest", for sure...

But the trailer only depicts him alone...

@Blacksmith1985 They are marketing it as "a personal journey", so I think Kratos will be alone. Mimir will be there, but no combat partner.

I'm interested, it looks very deep and compelling!!!

Finally. It's really a added incentive, a very welcome one!!!

Yesterday I played a lot of Final Fantasy XVI and a few chapters of Uncharted 1 Rem. . I will travel today and only return in the monday (gonna attend a concert of the heavy metal band Angra), so no gaming to me for the rest of the weekend. See you soon folks!!

This game is a classic. It took me a long time to beat it because my copy was damaged, and only a year later a friend lent me his copy. A very interesting take in the franchise.

Gonna sport Ezio in my profile!!

I'm impressed with how photorealistic the graphics are. Now I want to see a action sequence, how it flows.

I don't have a concrete plan this weekend, but I think i will play Disco Elysium, Uncharted Remastered Collection and Final Fantasy XVI. There are other games in the roll, and if I feel the urge, I play one of them as well.

Maybe I will give Sable a try. But yes, I expected more from december line-up.

I will play it for sure. Always wanted to, but didn't had the time on my dying PS3.

It have great charm. Count me in.

This weekend I will play Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Disco Elysium, and Uncharted 1 Remastered, as I felt an itch to play the series after watching the movie. The gameplay is so straight and engaging!! I will replay the 5 games in their remastered forms.

Good. I was right, a bug.

I played AC Valhalla for more than 2 hours yesterday on PS5 and nothing like this happened. I hope it's only a bug...
